Ideas for 2 night stay in North West

Mrshaworth2b

Hello,

On here for a bit of advice, we are planning a two nights stay away in the next couple of weeks. We have a 16 month old, so looking to go somewhere that has some attractions for him. Doesn't have to be somewhere full of attractions but would like at least one we could visit. I.e sea life, zoo, beach, good swimming pool, etc

Looking no further than chester, would Leeds, lake district, we're only an hour away from blackpool so not interested in there.

Thank you to anyone who gives me ideas

We just got back from Alton towers, we done 4days at the splash landings hotel, my 2 and half year old loved cbeebies land and the pool at splash landings, they have some superb evening entertainment for under 5's which my very shy toddler really enjoyed.

Have you considered Leicestershire can stay in market Bosworth area and near to twycross zoo and Drayton manor for Thomas land. Also Bosworth water n battle grounds are lovely.

Matlock has Gullivers World; it also has beautiful scenery really close by and plenty of bits and bobs to do. Have a look round there?

Chester - for Chester Zoo.
Lakes - obvious attractions plus North Lakes Animal Park.
Whalley area - could go witch-hunting around Pendle Hill.
Skipton - has canal you could take a boat trip on/walk along.
